App Comparison
Fatmap
The challenger
VS
Ski Kavallerie
The ski club
Beautiful maps. Empty chairlift.
Fatmap (now part of Strava) produces genuinely stunning 3D mountain maps and is a great tool for route planning. But it's a solo experience — there's no group trip system, no ski clubs, no après-ski, and the community aspect is minimal. Also: it costs money before you get started.
“Fatmap makes skiing look beautiful. Ski Kavallerie makes it social and free to start.”
